WAKE FOREST — The Jim Allen Group Coldwell Banker HPW continues their commitment to community outreach with the Charitable Giving Project.

A financial donation is given to the charity of choice based on the success of their business. For every transaction with The Jim Allen Group, they increase their donation. In 2012, a new charity was selected every quarter with a resulting total contribution of more than $15,000. For 2013, the group selected the Boys & Girls Club of Wake Forest as their year-long beneficiary.

For the first half of 2013, the total contribution to the club was $7,500.

The Boys & Girls Club of Wake Forest provides a safe and enriching environment for local youth to learn, grow and to reach their full potential. The club offers after school programs, summer camps and opportunities for kids to participate in a wide variety of activities and sporting events.

“Having the ability to make a difference to others and to be able to do this on a daily basis is extremely gratifying” stated Jim Allen. “We look forward to continuing our efforts throughout the year with The Boys and Girls Club of Wake Forest.”

Also, The Jim Allen Group is the title sponsor to the club’s largest fundraiser, Rocktoberfest, which takes place Oct. 5. It is a family-friendly event with a live concert stage, fun activity booths, food, prizes and a great way to share community.
